Mariners' Christian Bergman: Pitches good enough to win

Bergman (4-4) earned the win while allowing two runs on four hits and to walks over 5.2 innings Sunday against the Rangers. He struck out one.

After a brutal start in which he could not get through the third frame, this can be considered a solid bounceback start for Bergman. The only runs he yielded came on a Carlos Gomez two-run homer in the second inning. Two points of concern in Bergman's outing were the lack of strikeouts and the fact that he coerced only two swinging strikes against 22 batters.
